Benoit, I want to thank you all on this thread for posting this. I set my Windows 2000 to:
HKLM\System\ControlSet1\Services\Tcpip\Parameters DWORD: TCPTimedWaitDelay Decimal:60 HKLM\System\ControlSet2\Services\Tcpip\Parameters DWORD: TCPTimedWaitDelay Decimal:60 HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters DWORD: TCPTimedWaitDelay Decimal:60 The Netstat is reporting the clearing of those Time_Wait connections in a reasonable time now. Did I understand correctly that once a connection goes to a Time_Wait, the server connected cannot reuse the previous connection anyway, or is my server waiting to re-establish connection on the same port, and if it doesn't within the TCPTimedWaitDelay, the connection port is dropped ?
